Nikola demonstrate the twists and turns of working with hay and other natural materials
Celebrating friendship and tolerance
You can tell by the kids' faces how surprised they were about all the things you can do with hay

Our little Mateo and Nina, so patient and definitely loving the process
Let me see what else I've got in my basket of tricks
I will show you my heart
Isn't this cool? they made giant necklaces with their hearts of hay
First we're just warming them up and teaching them the technique. Now, we are getting them on to the real task at hand
The next step brings them in groups of two. Here's the super Nikolina and Anamarja's team

I am very grateful and honored to have been able to share such a tremendous experience with the wonderful people at Suncokret--Maja, Predrag, thank you very much. You guys are doing an amazing job, and I was happy to share it with everyone. Our missions continue.
Also, meeting all the artists after long months of coordinating the project, experiencing their enthusiasm while witnessing their talents made me feel extremely lucky to be there. The kids, I love all of you, and I will always cherish this experience for the rest of my life. Thank you for opening your little hearts to me.
Keep up with the good work says Alex.
